Added Multihoming feature to LWIP (ability to use more than one network interfaces) for increasing networking reliability.
This involves:
LWIP interface
LWIP IP routing
DNS storage
Sockets (bind to interface name possibility)
possibility to add non default network interface
cellular middleware modifications if cellular connection is used
- Serialized the sending of multiple async DNS queries since limits on event
message box sizes
- Added timer function that supervises the total time used to make DNS query
and triggers socket timeouts
- Changed nsapi_error_t to new nsapi_value_or_error_t on interface headers
- Corrected wording of gethostbyname_async return values
- Clarified .json options
- Added a new data type for socket callback that can be used from interrupts
- Corrected variable limits to use INT32_MAX etc. defines
- Changed mallocs to new
- Optimized variable sizes on DNS_QUERY definition
- Changed call_in/call methods of the stack to callback provided by the stack
- Specified what are limitations for operations that are made in callback
- Added pure virtual class DNS that defines DNS operations
- Added cancel operation and unique ID to DNS request used in cancel
- Added DNS configuration options to netsocket/mbed_lib.json for retries,
response wait time and cache size
- Changed host name to use dynamic memory in DNS query list and cache,
set maximum length for the name to 255 bytes.
- Added mutex to asynchronous DNS
- Reworked retries: there is now total retry count and a server specific count
- Ignores invalid incoming UDP socket messages (DNS header is not valid), and retries DNS query
- Reworked DNS module asynchronous operation functions
- Corrected other review issues (nothrow new, missing free, missing mutex unlock etc.)
